Daily Offerings

28 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying, “Command the people of Israel and say to them, ‘My offering, (A)my food for my food offerings, my (B)pleasing aroma, you shall be careful to offer to me at its appointed time.’ (C)And you shall say to them, This is the food offering that you shall offer to the Lord: two male lambs a year old without blemish, day by day, as a regular offering. The one lamb you shall offer in the morning, and the other lamb you shall offer at twilight; also (D)a tenth of an ephah[a] of fine flour for (E)a grain offering, mixed (F)with a quarter of a hin[b] of beaten oil. It is a (G)regular burnt offering, which was ordained at Mount Sinai for a pleasing aroma, a food offering to the Lord. Its drink offering shall be a quarter of a hin for each lamb. In the Holy Place you shall pour out a drink offering of strong drink to the Lord. The other lamb you shall offer at twilight. Like the grain offering of the morning, and like its drink offering, you shall offer it as a food offering, with a pleasing aroma to the Lord.

Daily offering

28 The Lord spoke to Moses: Command the Israelites and say to them: Make sure to offer to me my offering, my food, my food gift as a soothing smell to me at its appointed time.

You will say to them: This is the food gift that you must present to the Lord: two flawless one-year-old lambs as the regular entirely burned offering every day. One lamb you will offer in the morning and the second at twilight, with a tenth of an ephah[a] of fine flour for a grain offering mixed with a fourth of a hin[b] of beaten oil. It is the regular entirely burned offering begun at Mount Sinai, a food gift that is a soothing smell to the Lord. Their drink offering will be a fourth of a hin for each lamb. In the sanctuary a drink offering of brandy will be poured out for the Lord. The second lamb you will offer at twilight like the grain offering and the drink offering in the morning. You will offer a food gift that is a soothing smell to the Lord.
